Real as in that it has laws and such that are not merely relative. For example, morality is technically an illusion/concept created by man; there aren't any "laws" of morality, and it's not like as if morality is the 5th dimension or anything. If it weren't for humans, morality would not "exist".
So what about time? Is time just a concept describing...well...stuff happening? If so, then time travel would be impossible, since there would be no "time" as a dimension.

Time does exist. That is how things age and grow old. That is how stars burn out. All that happens with time. If time did not exist then everything would remain the same and constant. Nothing would change.
But time would.

That's exactly what people say though. If time is just the 4th dimension, everything stays the same. That we only perceive in a linearly moving fashion doesn't make it not so.

If it is an illusion, it's an illusion that we have not yet been able to see through. It definitely governs everything that we are and know, however, I really believe that it could be possible to manipulate it. How? I have no idea.

Time as a dimension, an entity not per se the linear calendar based progression of time but the space-time is definitely real. Time has been seen to slow down as a result of speed as well as gravity as they are all linked within physical nature. Time exists as matter does and in a similar capacity though it does not extend in merely one direction but many as does any object in real space.

Is time real or is it an illusion?
